Ontology is the philosophical study of the nature of being, becoming, existence, or reality, as well as the basic categories of being and their relations. Traditionally listed as a part of the major branch of philosophy known as metaphysics, ontology often deals with questions concerning what entities exist or may be said to exist, and how such entities may be grouped, related within a hierarchy, and subdivided according to similarities and differences. Although ontology as a philosophical enterprise is highly theoretical, it also has practical application in information science and technology, such as ontology engineering.
In analytic philosophy, ontology deals with the determination whether categories of being are fundamental and discusses in what sense the items in those categories may be said to "be". It is the inquiry into being in so much as it is being ("being qua being"), or into beings insofar as they exist—and not insofar as (for instance) particular facts may be obtained about them or particular properties belong to them.

Ontology, Epistemology, Methodology How it could be reflected in your research report? The second session in MIS Research Methodology Course (Self-Study) If you need one to one help, I charge 40 GBP per hour offer one-to-one help and 2 GBP for reading each page. I do not write (no writing service) to anyone. I just offer counseling. I can help in research methodology, literature review, and analysis. Furthermore, I offer regular meeting with PhD and master students to follow up with them If you are interested please contact me. Skype: amgad_1985

In American Philosopher #31, Hilary Putnam explains and critiques two aspects of W.V.O. Quine's view on ontology as well as a similar view held by G.E. Moore in ethics. Interview, music, and video by Phillip McReynolds
We can distinguish two families of approaches to the building of ontologies -- corresponding roughly to the contrast between 'neats' and 'scruffies' in artificial intelligence research. We describe the implications of each approach for the building of an ontology of philosophy, focusing especially on the Indiana Philosophy Ontology (InPhO) project led by Colin Allen.
In this talk, John Searle attempts to explain how human institutional facts are created and maintained by a specific type of linguistic representation (i.e. a status function declaration). This creates and maintains systems of deontic power: rights, duties, obligations and empowerments of various kinds. And these provide the glue that hold human society together. They do such by providing humans with desire independent reasons for action, that is, reasons for doing things that are independent of one's immediate inclinations. This talk was given at the University of Oslo in May 2011. I don't own it.

Google Tech Talks June 21, 2007 ABSTRACT Semantic technologies aim at providing machine interpretable descriptions of information and services. Ontologies and related metadata provide the technological backbone for these semantic technologies that gain more and more relevance also in commercial settings, for example for information integration, search and retrieval. The talk will discuss various recent developments in the area of ontology and metadata management. As a starting point we present Semantic Mediawiki - an extension of the well-established Mediawiki platform that runs Wikipedia - for the large-scale collaborative generation of semantic metadata. We also show how simple semantic...

What is a woman? What, if anything, do particular women have in common with one another? What differentiates women from other groups of beings? In this interview, Jennifer McWeeny describes how a new kind of feminist ontological project that she terms "topographies of flesh" can speak to these keystone feminist questions and others. She also discusses her comparative philosophical method, how she came to call herself a feminist, why she sees veganism as a feminist issue, and the need for creative feminism that goes beyond critique of dominant ontological paradigms. McWeeny is Associate Professor of Philosophy Worcester Polytechnic Institute. Her article "Topographies of Flesh: Women, Nonhuman Animals, and the Embodiment of Connection and Difference," published in Hypatia 29(2) was awarde...
